OUTRAGEOUS

1. Octomom wants to trademark her name so that she can market a line of clothing or diapers and a video game company also wants to trademark ‘octomom.’ What has free enterprise come to?

2. The U.S. in 2008 had the highest per capital income in the world but politicians and some Americans still complain about T.E.T., tough, economic times. A reality check is needed.

3. A local Goodwill store was forced to close for 3 weeks because a mercury blood pressure machine broke and spilled its contents onto the floor. Haz-mat was called in while free trade was ruled out.

4. A local city school system will participate in a local ‘wellness expo,’ as if this constitutes education.

5. Virginia Tech University canceled classes on the commemoration day of the 2nd anniversary of a student massacre there. Why?
